Pushing Sanders to Run as a Green and His Backers Not to Support Hillary Clinton if She Gets the Nomination

An interview with Greg Haddock of #BernieOrBust

Dave Lindorff

UPDATE: Jill Stein, the likely Green Party candidate for president, who ran in 2012 for president as a Green once already, has sent an open letter to Bernie Sanders urging him to "cooperate" with the Greens and to consider making a third party run for president if he cannot win the Democratic nomination.

ThisCantBeHappening!'s radio program of the same name, "This Can't Be Happening!, which runs every Wednesday afternoon on Progressive Radio, today features Greg Haddock, a spokesperson for the growing #BernieOrBust movement that is working to convince Sanders supporters to publicly pledge their commitment not to back Hillary Clinton if she succeeds in winning -- or stealing -- the Democratic nomination in July.

Haddock, who lives in Germany, and show host Dave Lindorff also talk about the the importance of having hundreds of thousands of Sanders backers descend on the city of Philadelphia this July 25 for the Democratic Convention to push Sanders' cause, and to pressure him to go over to the Green Party and run as their candidate if he doesn't get the Democratic nomination, and not to endorse Hillary Clinton.
